If you are travelling to India with a child or children, the child would need to apply for an Indian visa just like the adults, however, a consent letter will also be needed and, with other documents and after having been signed by both parents, to be sent to Indian High Commission.
Example of a consent letter:
Name of one of the guardians of the child
23 House Street
City, County, Country
Post Code
Telephone number
Date of letter
The Visa Officer
High Commission of India
India House
Aldwych, London
WC2B 4NA
